I'm so confused about India's idea about how they deal with the cryptocurrency, if they will legalize it or not.
I don't think they ever would because there are already a massive number of tax evaders and if you allow crypto payments to be legal then there will be a terrible situation as no one would keep their money in bank rather just keep in bitcoins and evade taxes.
Just like other countries, their decision towards cryptocurrency should be finalize so that it don't make any confusion or dismay to the people who are hoping for it to become legalized. Maybe their country is not that prepared regarding the proper regulation of cryptocurrencies into their economy. Probably, they lack of knowledge and experience in allowing it to regulate in the market that's why their decision is not that secured.
The reason why there has been so much confusion and ambiguity around bitcoins in India is because the lack of knowledge by the government whether it is in their interest and how it works and the possible problems if they are legalized. The government never had the proper committee who would review and take a solid decision.
They lack of affirmation whether they will allow people to use cryptocurrency or not.
From what I have understood so far they have allowed transactions to be made in crypto but they do not consider bitcoins as a legal tender.
